Woke up quite early this morning and decided to have a wander around Paris as I'll be in the office for most of the day
This was the view crossing the Seine from my Metro journey:

I nipped off the train and took a picture of the Eiffel Tower from ground level but also went to the Trocadero and took a lot more pictures as the view from there was fantastic and lots more impressive than from this direction

At the Trocadero though I saw my first "traditional" Metro sign which was quite cool

The sign is loads more atmospheric than the more modern Metro signs

Like every big City though Paris has its stalls selling tourist tat. You could see mini Eiffel Towers everywhere, but so far I only saw one piece that was Metro "branded" - this pretty yucky photoframe

Back on the Metro and again like every major City, Paris isn't without its homeless

I also managed to hear and spot a few buskers, although the Parisians don't seem to have sponsored spots for them to play

Just to finish for today with a shot of one of the trains coming into the station

Back to work now, so more pictures will be up tomorrow!
